Notes About The Poem

Ounce of Prevention

Does wearing a mask make you ill?
Are you a social distancing hater?
Then imagine how you'd feel
Being put on a ventilator

Gershon Wolf Date: 7/1/2020 10:15:00 PM Succinct ink, and couldn't agree more. I'm all for the 'Three W's:' Wear your mask. Watch your distance. Wash your hands... I'd have liked to see businesses open up earlier, if America had been all aboard with the 'Three W's.' Unfortunately for 1/2 of this country, at least, it's treated as a joke. Write on, Mark! :) gw Login to Reply Mark Toney Date: 7/2/2020 6:52:00 AM Instead of flattening the curve the United States is on a roller coaster right now. I appreciate your stopping by, Gershon. Take care and stay safe! ~Mark
